I love chicken. I could eat it almost every day since, like Forrest Gump's buddy Bubba said about shrimp, there are a thousand ways to prepare it. Tonight won't be that fancy.

Chicken tarragon
Yellow rice
Steamed green beans with slices of almonds
Fresh dinner rolls

Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc

Melon cubes with blueberries

my last meal (LOL) before surgery. might have a bite of leftover salad too. was thinking a steak but it is so hot, and it might rain and the son wants to run to town anyway, so pizza it is. will save the ribeyes for when I return, possibly as early as Friday!
